I made the horrible mistake of making a 7 day reservation at this place. We reserved one of the cottages. When we got there I literally almost cried. We decided to stay the first night and it was the worst night of my life. The air conditioner didn't work, the beds were horrible, there was mold in the bathroom and... More

The motel was at the low-point of the travel season, so my party was the only group taking a room. It Watson the lake with a nice view. There was also a fast wifi connection. There was a bit of smell, and the refrigerator was noisy. Nonetheless it was an okay room. The price was also very good.

Idk what these bad reviews are for. Who cares what the main office is like? You only have to check in there. Very nice people. Cottage is clean. Nothing fancy but nice. Were right on the lake. The view is amazing. Even in the cold rain im glad we came. We came back from whitefish point and they had cleaned... More

I have stayed at Curley's Paradise Motel on and off for the last 20 years. The owners are very friendly and acomidating. The rooms have always been very clean and love the view of the bay. Paradise is a quaint little town in the north struggling along like most towns who receive the amount of snow they do and relying... More

What an awful experience. After 8 hours of driving Curley's was an unfortunate place to reserve a room. The location is very remote with not many hotel/motel options. When we checked in the 2 rooms I was shown both smelled overwhelmingly like mold. The manager/owner was woken up to check the rooms. He felt strongly it was the smell of... More

I called the motel before my girlfriend and I along with married friends of ours left for a trip down to Paradise for the Shipwreck Museum. Here is basically how the conversation went: Me: "I'm calling to see if you have rooms available for the 1st of August" Lady on the other line: "Yes we have a room on the... More

We were on a motorcycle trip July 21-25 in the U.P. and our spot to stay Friday & Saturday night was supposed to be Curleys. We got there and were immediately startled by the building itself. The office was this nice new building but the motel part looked like something totally different. There were pieces of wood hanging off, the... More

We just spent 3 nights at Curly's while we were in the Paradise area snowshoeing with our two dogs.This is an older motel which we actually prefer over the boring cookie cutter chains. Our room,(#27) had swirley plaster walls, cool 50's style overhead light shade and old pink and blue bathroom tile in good shape. Bathroom had a new tub... More

The place is older and smells like smoke. The room was small and old but clean. It needs a facelift. There was WIFI in the room. Shower pressure was strong. Not sure it was worth the price.

I needed a decent motel for a few days while visiting Tahquamenon Falls. Curley's was terrific. The owners are very nice, and the rooms are simple and comfortable. I would highly recommend it! Also, it is in easy walking distance of all the little shops and restaurants in town.
